I sincerely say good luck lehighguy, just please make the responsible choices that got you that large bankroll. I think you will do great, but I recommend finding a place where you can really relax away from the table. How about you go Andy Black and meditate or some sh**, maybe golf. Good luck man, also read my signature. I think it applies to you.

good luck, for those that dont know you...

what stakes?
Where you start from?
What bb/100 were you beating all the previous stakes for over how many hands?
How old are you?
Where you from?
What do you expect/need to earn to "keep even" with your job payments?

Cheers,

Best of luck to you... I followed most of this story...did I miss anything between you telling your parents you weren't happy and them saying that's how life is to you quitting your job.

Congrats man, I just quit my job a month ago, and that feeling is definitely awesome. Sounds like you did the right thing. Nice work.

I predict that you will live to regret this decision. It make take a couple years, but you will look back and wish you had stuck with it.

However, Im sure you are smart enough to get back on your feet some other way even if poker doesnt work out so you'll be fine.

I do wish you luck.
